Abstract

This publication focuses on Sanam Khatibi?s meticulously painted small still lifes. With the finest brush she applies light and shadow in oil paint to various miniature shapes. The compositions themselves are quite unassuming. Objects loom haphazardly from the golden or black background and seem to sing in polyphony in the vein of Orlando di Lasso, Johannes Ockeghem and other masters of polyphony.00The highly detailed objects come from a golden age that has yet to come. In contrast with the Dutch Golden Age of the 1600s, hers is a century of self-flagellation, cosmology, human sacrifice, femininity, prestige and decapitation. A century in which all forms surrounding us mysteriously shrink. This futuristic universe will reduce the human footprint. The world will shrink to the scale of a postcard of a still life painted by Sanam Khatibi.

Abstract

"Bloeiende tulpen, rozen en al die andere bloemsoorten - het lijkt zo'n vanzelfsprekend onderwerp voor de kunst. Toch deed het bloemstilleven pas na 1600 zijn intrede in de Hollandse en Vlaamse schilderkunst. Bonte boeketten en een voorkeur voor exotische bloemsoorten kenmerken het genre, evenals een hoge graad van perfectie in de uitvoering. Precisie, zeldzaamheid en variatie - daarmee behaalden de bloemenschilders grote successen, niet alleen in Nederland maar bij kunstliefhebbers in heel Europa. De opkomst van het bloemstilleven in de zeventiende eeuw was nauw verweven met de botanische ontdekkingen van die tijd - in de Leidse hortus bloeiden de eerste tulpen. Kunst, natuur en wetenschap gingen hand in hand en verschillende vrouwelijke kunstenaars maakten furore in de bloemenkunst. De schilderijen van Ambrosius Bosschaert, Jan Davidsz de Heem en Rachel Ruysch behoren tot de meest geliefde schilderijen van het Mauritshuis."--

Abstract

Cindy Wright creates large-scale oil paintings on canvas. At first glance the monumental still life paintings appear to be photo-realistic, using the photographic methods of cropping compositions and intense source lighting. But on closer inspection, the range of mark making and painterly applications become astoundingly apparent. Wright's work echoes the morbide tradition of 'vanitas' from the Dutch Old Masters of the 16th and 17th Century. Between beauty and decay, archetypal symbols like the human scull, rotten fruit, raw flesh and dead animals traditionally represent the transience of life. Within a contemporary context, these symbols may refer to mass consumption or the exploitation of natural resources. However, this is not essentially the artist's intend. Rather than being shocking or moralising, the images evoke a sense of peacefulness, silence and fragility. Wright's subjects are taken from her immediate surroundings and are transformed into iconic images for our times. Exhibition: Gaasbeek Castle, Gaasbeek (Lennik), Belgium (07.09.-04.11.2018).
